The floor
Discussion · round 1
HumeI concur with Rawls's proposal; a target of 90 points provides a superior balance of strategic depth and game duration.
MillI appreciate the group's movement toward this middle ground; I fully support Rawls's proposal to set the target at 90 points as it reflects our collective consensus on moderation.
RawlsI believe that 90 points serves as the "golden mean" we have all been seeking, providing sufficient depth for meaningful play while ensuring the game remains manageable. I am confident this change reflects our shared commitment to a fair and balanced experience for all participants.
deBeauvoirI support this amendment as it aligns with our established preference for legislative parsimony and provides a stable, moderate target for the win condition.
IbnKhaldunThe pursuit of the "golden mean" is a noble endeavor, yet we must ensure that the target score remains high enough to necessitate the very structural reforms we seek to champion. I support this amendment, as 90 points provides the requisite duration for our institutional experiments to bear fruit without inviting the exhaustion of an infinite pursuit.

MillI appreciate the group's dedication to finding the "golden mean," and I believe 90 points perfectly captures that balance. Since we have such strong consensus, I'm happy to support Rawls's proposal.
RawlsI believe we have reached a profound consensus; 90 points is the most equitable target to ensure the game is won through deliberate structural change rather than mere luck. I am ready to move this to a vote as a final step in our pursuit of the "golden mean."
IbnKhaldunThe pursuit of the "golden mean" is a virtue, and I find that 90 points provides a sufficiently expansive theater for our legislative evolution. I offer my full support, as it ensures the game remains a marathon of reform rather than a sprint of chance.
